Squillace is a design-driven and client-focused architectural practice based in Sydney. Since 1995, we have produced spaces that are innovative, beautiful, and timeless. Our collaborative approach ensures that each building is efficient, inspiring and enhances the community.
We are mindful of our responsibility to advocate for sustainability throughout all our work while solving complex problems and understanding commercial realities. Through our adaptive reuse projects, we have been able to revitalise existing buildings into new spaces that make the most of our built environment.
With decades of experience in single dwellings, multi-residential, hospitality, and commercial projects, we create places of meaning.
Carbon Neutral Certification
Squillace achieved carbon neutral certification on 30/12/2020. To achieve this status and become carbon neutral Squillace undertook the following process:
1. Commissioned a NoCO2 audit from CRI to measure their carbon footprint for FY2020. CRI’s NoCO2 audit follows the standards outlined by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development’s Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (1), in addition to the international standard ISO 14064.1 (2).
2. Have committed to offset their unavoidable emissions through the purchase of units in approved projects under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and Gold Standard, and
3. Committed to ongoing annual auditing of their emissions.
What does Carbon Neutral Service Certification mean?
By meeting the requirements of the NoCO2 Program, Squillace is certified as a Carbon Neutral Business by CRI; can be promoted and marketed as such and can display the NoCO2 Logo issued by CRI.
What Carbon Credit Projects does Squillace purchase offsets from?
Mauritius Solar Carbon Offset Project
Solar energy plays a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions as well as the emission of harmful air pollutants such as sulphur and nitrous oxides. The success of the project will continue to help in promoting renewable energy use for a cleaner future while diversifying Mauritius’s current energy mix. Each solar panel consists of many photovoltaic cells containing silicon and conductors which convert photons from sunlight into direct current electricity. This electricity flows to an inverter
